Georgina Hayden's recipe for gigantes with 'nduja

If a Greek and an Italian had a love affair, this would be the outcome: creamy, tomatoey butter beans pepped up with fried 'nduja for a bit of spice. Served with lots of parsley and crusty bread, this is a meal in itself, but the beans would also work brilliantly as part of a meze. It's the summer tomato dream. Prep 10 min Cook 40 min Serves 4 3 tbsp olive oil2 onions, peeled and finely chopped3 carrots, peeled and sliced3 celery sticks, trimmed and slicedSea salt and black pepper 90g 'nduja2 tbsp tomato puree 2 400g tins butter beans (or a 700g jar), not drained ½ bunch flat-leaf parsley, finely chopped200g cherry tomatoes on the vineCrusty bread, to serve Put a large, shallow casserole or deep, large saucepan on a medium heat. Add the oil, onions, carrots and celery, season generously and fry, stirring often, for five minutes. Crumble in the 'nduja, turn up the heat and fry for another five minutes. Stir in the tomato puree followed by the butter beans and their liquid, then pour in 150ml cold water and stir in most of the chopped parsley. Nestle in the tomatoes still on their vines and leave to bubble away gently for about 15 minutes. Meanwhile, turn on the grill to high. When everything in the pan is tender, and the liquid has reduced slightly and turned rich, transfer the pan to the oven and grill for three to five minutes, until a lovely crust forms on top. Scatter over the remaining chopped parsley, and serve with chunks of crusty bread for mopping up all those juices.

Saffron brings a golden hue to this fresh combination of zucchini and pasta

This pasta dish, a riff on an offering served at Trattoria Bertozzi in Bologna, Italy, is a golden, fresh combination of guanciale (cured pork cheek), fragrant saffron, summery zucchini and short, curly pasta. In this recipe from our cookbook ' Milk Street Backroads Italy,' we opted for easier-to-find but equally meaty pancetta, and lightened the dish's richness by swapping in half-and-half for the heavy cream. The restaurant uses gramigna pasta, a tubular, curled shape from the Emilia-Romagna region, but cavatappi or gemelli works just as well, combining with the zucchini and catching the lightly creamy sauce in its crevices. Saffron is best when steeped in hot liquid to extract its flavor and aroma. To infuse the dish with a golden hue and earthy-floral flavor, we soak a generous pinch of saffron threads in a portion of water before combining it with the pasta. Don't boil the pasta until al dente. Drain it when it has a little more bite than is desirable in the finished dish; the noodles will cook a bit more in the sauce. Also, don't forget to reserve 2 cups of the cooking water before draining the pasta. Serve with shaved Parmesan and freshly ground black pepper. Pasta with Zucchini, Pancetta and Saffron Start to finish: 40 minutes Servings: 4 Ingredients: 1 pound zucchini 12 ounces short, curly pasta, such as cavatappi or gemelli Kosher salt and ground black pepper ½ teaspoon saffron threads 3 ounces pancetta, finely chopped 1 medium garlic clove, smashed and peeled ½ cup half-and-half 1 ounce Parmesan cheese, shaved with a vegetable peeler Directions: Halve the zucchini lengthwise, then use a spoon to scrape out the seeds. Slice each half lengthwise about ¼ inch thick, then cut the strips crosswise into 1-inch sections. In a large pot, boil 4 quarts of water. Add the pasta and 1 tablespoon salt, then cook, stirring occasionally, until just shy of al dente. Reserve 2 cups of the cooking water, then drain. In a small bowl, combine 1½ cups of the reserved water and the saffron; set aside the remaining ½ cup water. While the pasta cooks, in a 12-inch skillet over medium, cook the pancetta and garlic, stirring occasionally, until the pancetta has rendered some of its fat and begins to crisp, about 3 minutes. Remove and discard the garlic, then stir in the zucchini and ½ teaspoon pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the pancetta is fully crisped and the zucchini is lightly browned, 4 to 6 minutes. Add the pasta and the saffron water to the skillet. Bring to a simmer over medium-high and cook, stirring often, until the pasta is al dente, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the half-and-half and cook, stirring, until the sauce is lightly thickened and clings to the pasta, about 1 minute. Off heat, taste and season with salt and pepper. If needed, stir in additional reserved pasta water 1 tablespoon at a time to create a lightly creamy sauce. Transfer to a serving bowl and top with Parmesan.
